The Biblical Explanation A holy life is a different, distinct, set apart way of living (Rom. 12:1; 2 Cor. 6:17-7:1; Eph. 4:17-24) A holy life is a non-conformed way of living (Rom. 12:2; 1 Pet. 1:14-16; Jas. 1:27) A holy life is a living sacrifice presented to God (Rom. 12:1; 6:12-13; 1 Pet. 2:24) A holy life is transformed by and to the will of God (Rom. 12:2; 2 Cor. 3:18) A holy life is determined to be acceptable to God (Rom. 12:1; 2 Cor. 5:9; John 8:29) A holy life is a reasonable response in service (Rom. 12:1)

The Biblical Motivation The basis/motivation of living a holy life is “the mercies of God” (Rom. 12:1; 2 Cor. 1:3; Eph. 2:4; Jas. 5:11) His mercies and compassions are seen: In His love (Eph. 2:4-7) In His sacrifice (Rom. 3:23-26) In His restraint (2 Pet. 3:9, 15) In His forgiveness (Tit. 3:3-7) In His promise of heaven (1 Pet. 1:3-5)

The Biblical Application Holy thoughts (Psa. 19:14; Phil. 4:8; Prov. 23:7) Holy ears (Prov. 4:23; 11:13; 1 Tim. 5:13; 1 John 4:1) Holy eyes (Matt. 5:27-28; Prov. 31:1; Psa. 101:3) Holy words (Matt. 12:33-37; Jas. 1:26; Col. 3:8-9; 4:6) Holy attitudes (Eph. 4:31-32; Phil. 2:3-5; 1 Pet. 3:8-9; 5:5-6) Holy desires (Gal. 5:16-25; 1 John 2:12-17; 2 Cor. 5:1-4) Holy choices (1 Thess. 5:21-22; Col. 3:17; Rom. 12:9) Holy appearance (1 Tim. 2:9; 1 Pet. 3:4; Matt. 5:16) Holy conduct (1 Pet. 1:15; 2:11-12; 3:10-11; Jas. 4:13-17) Holy relationships (2 Cor. 6:14-18; 1 Cor. 15:33; Eph. 5:22-6:9)

The Biblical Prescription “Pursue…holiness, without which no one will see the Lord” (Heb. 12:14). Believe that Jesus is God’s Son – Romans 10:9 Repent of your sins and turn to God – Romans 2:4 Confess your faith in Jesus – Romans 10:10 Be immersed into Christ – Romans 6:3-4 God will forgive all of your sins – Acts 2:38 God will add you to His church – Acts 2:47 God will write your name in heaven – Hebrews 12:23 Live a faithful, holy life – Romans 12:1
